Ouachita Baptist University

What sets Beacon Design apart is their unwavering commitment to customer service. The success we've enjoyed since implementing their products is evident in the stories from our alumni, who eagerly await each year's ornament to adorn their Christmas trees.

Overview

In 2010, Ouachita Baptist University, located in Arkansas, wanted a new and fun way to engage and thank donors.

They partnered with Beacon Design to create an annual custom keepsake program. These keepsakes are given to donors as thank you gifts.

Each year, Ouachita Baptist University highlights an on-campus building in their design. Donors appreciate the attention to architectural detail and authenticity of each design. They have seen an increase in donor retention since beginning this program.

Ouachita Baptist University is proud of their successful keepsake program and plans to continue their annual custom keepsake project for the foreseeable future.

Approach

Build Pieces That Resonate

Increase Donor Retention

Gifting keepsakes to donors to thank them for their donation has led to an increase in donations and donor retention.

Generate Buzz

Creating new pieces yearly helps build a community of collectors. People will seek out the product yearly instead of just buying one.
